Cross-Pollinate: Blending Monoprinting Techniques
Aug 28 - Sep 1, 2023
9AM-5PM
Concept
This class explores the hybrid print through an extensive range of monoprinting techniques. We begin with traditional techniques, followed by the incorporation of gum transfers, inkjet transfers, and chine collé. Working with both hand-generated and photographic imagery results in dynamic, multilayered prints. Students are introduced to each technique as a single process procedure and then encouraged to investigate ways to combine the various methods into a composition. By embracing technical exploration and experimentation, the best of each technique can be emboldened by pairing with other processes. Students produce works that reflect a synthesis of process, layering, composition, and ideas.
